about

This song takes a look at the nature of our existence as human beings. Our origins and our return, from a physical point of view, to that from which we came. But that we have been restored and the physical is not all there is if one has faith in Christ. The mid section of the song describes the struggle and ultimate triumph when faith takes root and restoration is complete.

lyrics

Dust to dust you bore me
Dust to dust I shall return
I know, death it waits for me
Oh death? Where’s your sting

Dust to dust restore me
Heavens shall burn
I know, heaven waits for me
I long for that day

I can’t make you
drink the water my friend
I can only take you to the fountain
I can’t make you taste the bread my friend
I can only show you where it hidden

In our dark landscape of skies so gray
In a cistern full of frogs and clay
And they hold the scape of your every fear
But they hold the shape of your closet dear

Drowning in the water
I feel the metamorphosis
Taking shape
Taking all that once was
And now bending it to your will
I can feel the water entering
The taste of salt in my mouth
The infinite now enters my throat
And now I have swallowed of the Truth

My pen, lies in your hands
Bleed it dry
Your strength, coursing through my veins
Eternal might
